ARTICULATA 2006 21 (2): 121–159 FAUNISTIK An annotated checklist of the Orthoptera (Saltatoria) of Cyprus Josef Tumbrinck Abstract For the first time a critical, annotated checklist of the Orthoptera of Cyprus is published. All relevant literature was evaluated and data from other sources, in particular specimens gathered by Jos Tilmans (IX-X.2005), as well as my own data (V.2002) were included. Altogether 86 species have been reported from Cyprus. Twenty of these were deleted because of doubtful or wrong data. Three species are reported here for the first time for Cyprus: Oecanthus dulcisonans, Chorthippus bornhalmi and Dociostaurus (Kazakia) jagoi. The 66 species of Cyprus contain one endemic genus (Exodrymadusa), eleven endemic species and four endemic subspecies. It is argued that Modicogryllus cyprius is a valid species, based on the morphology of the epiphallus and analysis of song. For the first time an illustration of the epiphallus of Pyrgomorpha cypria is published. Zusammenfassung Erstmalig wird mit der vorliegenden Arbeit eine kommentierte Checkliste der Heuschrecken von Zypern veröffentlicht. Dafür wurde die gesamte Fachliteratur ausgewertet. Die Heuschreckenfunde von Jos Tilmans (IX-X.2005) und meine eigene Funde (V.2002) sind in die Auswertung einbezogen worden. Insgesamt 86 Arten sind für Zypern bislang publiziert worden. Davon wurden zwanzig Arten wegen zweifelhafter oder falscher Angaben verworfen. Drei Arten werden erst- malig für Zypern nachgewiesen: Oecanthus dulcisonans, Chorthippus bornhalmi und Dociostaurus (Kazakia) jagoi. Unter den 66 Arten von Zypern finden sich eine endemische Gattung (Exodrymadusa), elf endemische Arten und vier endemische Unterarten. Basierend auf der Morphologie des Epiphallus und der Analyse des Gesangs wird die Auffassung vertreten, dass es sich bei Modi- cogryllus cyprius um eine gültige Art handelt. Erstmalig wird eine Zeichung des Epiphallus von Pyrgomorpha cypria veröffentlicht. Introduction After an excursion to the island in May 2002 I decided to investigate the neglected grasshopper fauna of Cyprus more thoroughly. The last species list was published by GEORGHIOU (1977), as part of his comprehensive work "The Insects and Mites of Cyprus". His list was unsatisfactory and contains many errors. In this paper the literature data are critically evaluated. Together with my own data (263 individuals) and information provided by others this resulted in a new annotated species list for Cyprus. ARTICULATA 21 (2) [15.12.2006] 121 Investigation area Cyprus covers 9251 km2 and is the third biggest island in the Mediterranean Sea after Sicily and Sardinia. It is situated 65 km south of the coast of Turkey and 100 km west of the Syrian coast and extends over 224 km in a SSW-NNE direc- tion and over 96 km in NS direction. The easternmost and northernmost point is cape Ajios Andreas (35°24' N 34°36' E); the westernmost point lies close to Cape Arnauti (35°04' N 32°17' E); the southernmost point is Cape Gata in the SE of the peninsula Akrotiri (34°33' N 33°03' E). Circa 25 million years ago the island was lifted from the sea and reached its current size approximately 2 million years ago. The island can be arranged geomorphologically as follows: the mountain chain in the north, running from the west to east, the Kyreneia Mountains, rising in the extreme west up to 1024 m above sea level. Only a small strip of land separates these mountains from the sea in the north. In the south a broad, central plain, the Mesaoria, is situated. The Troodos Mountains occupy the centre of the SW-part of the island, which is almost surrounded by foothills. These mountains reach up to 1953 m above sea level in the Olympos, the highest altitude on the island. To the south and the west the foothills of Troodos level to the coastal interior of the south and west. The climate is mediterranean with a strong continental component, i.e. the sum- mers are particularly hot and dry. Only 5% of the annual precipitation falls between May and September. Two thirds of the precipitation of the year falls bet- ween December and February. In ancient times the island was strongly deforested. Extensive logging, forest fires and the dropping of Turkish incendiary bombs in the year 1974 devastated most of the remaining forest. The most common habitats today are maquis in the west and garrigue in the hills. Since the year 1982, large parts of the mountai- nous regions, especially Troodos, have been reforested. The plains are used agriculturally to a large extent and due to the small amount of precipitation they are not irrigated much. In the hills grazing with sheep and goats continues to play a large role. Biogeographically Cyprus belongs to Asia, but it is closely connected with the European continent by history and culture. The south of the political divided island joined the European Union in 1.5.2004 as Republic of Cyprus. The nor- thern part belongs to Turkey. Methods During my excursion between 2.-23.V.2002 twenty sites in the southern part of the island were visited (table 1). In total 263 specimens were caught. The speci- mens are kept largely in my collection. The following specimens were transferred to the Museum König in Bonn: Tylopsis lilifolia, 1 ƃ 19.V.2002, Polis; Platycleis intermedia mesopotamica, 1 Ƃ + 1 ƃ 19.V.2002, Polis; Modicogryllus cyprius, 1 ƃ, 7.V.2002, Troodos; 122 [15.12.2006] ARTICULATA 21 (2) Paratettix meridionalis, 1 Ƃ + 1 ƃ, 8.V.2002, Lagoudera; Uvarovitettix depressus, 1 Ƃ + 1 ƃ, 12.V.2002, Pera Pedi; Xya pfaendleri, 1 Ex., 6.V.2002, Saittas; 3 Ex. 20.V.2002, Avagas (Canyon); Calliptamus barbarus, 1 ƃ, 20.V.2002, Avagas (Canyon); Truxalis eximia cypria, 1 Ƃ, 20.V.2002, Avagas (Canyon); 1 ƃ 21.V.2002, Milou; Chorthippus bornhalmi, 1 Ƃ, 5.V.2002, Stavrovouni; 1 ƃ 12.V.2002, Pera Pedi; Dociostaurus maroccanus 1 Ƃ + 1 ƃ 8.V.2002, Alassa; Ochrilidia pruinosa,1 Ƃ, 10.V.2002, Limassol; Acrotylus insubricus, 1 Ƃ + 1 ƃ 22.V.2002, Agios Georgios; Acrotylus patruelis, 1 Ƃ 9.V.2002, Mandria; 1 ƃ 8.V.2002, Alassa; Aiolopus strepens, 1 Ƃ + 1 ƃ 23.V.2002, Akrotiri (Salt lake shore); Aiolopus thalassinus, 1 Ƃ + 1 ƃ 17.V.2002, Agios Georgios; Duroniella lucasii, 1 Ƃ + 1 ƃ 4.V.2002, Larnaka; Oedipoda miniata, 1 Ƃ + 1 ƃ 19.V.2002, Polis; Sphingoderus carinatus, 1 Ƃ + 1 ƃ 22.V.2002, Agios Georgios; Pyrgomorpha cognata, 1 Ƃ 23.V.2002 + 1 ƃ 10.V.2002, Akrotiri (Salt lake shore); Pyrgomorpha cypria, 1 Ƃ, 19.V.2002 + 1 ƃ 15.V.2002, Kritou Tera.

  • About Limassol

    About Limassol

    ABOUT LIMASSOL The district of Limassol which covers the south part of Cyprus, borders with the district of Larnaca in the east, with the district of Paphos in the west, as well as with the capital Nicosia in the north. The area of Limassol is 1,393 km² i.e. 15% of the whole area of Cyprus. About 80 km of Limassol is washed by the sea. Combining its roles as the second largest city, the island's main port, the centre of the wine industry and a bustling holiday resort, Lemesos emerges as a spirited and cosmopolitan seaside town. Limassol is a lively town largely due to the character of Lemesolians, a fun- loving lot. No wonder it holds the island's two top festivals, the pre-lenten Carnival with fancy dress balls, parades and festivities and the Wine Festival in September, a wine extravaganza where wine flows freely for everyone to enjoy, courtesy of the local wineries. Limassol emerged out of the two most important ancient city-kingdoms, Amathous, to the east of the town, and Kourion to the west, both of which are being extensively excavated. The magnificent setting of the ancient Kourion Theater is used for summer concerts and theatrical productions. In the middle Ages, Limassol hosted the marriage of Richard the Lionheart with Berengaria of Navarre from whom he crowned Queen of England. Thereafter the Crusaders made their headquarters at the Square keep west of the city, known as Kolossi Medieval Castle, where they fostered the making of wines, particularly the sweet dessert wine “Commandaria” – the oldest named wine in the world.

    Accessible Beaches for People with Special Access Needs

    REPUBLIC OF CYPRUS DEPUTY MINISTRY OF TOURISM ACCESSIBLE BEACHES FOR PEOPLE WITH SPECIAL ACCESS NEEDS The Deputy Ministry of Tourism, within the framework of its efforts to upgrade Cyprus beaches, is an active supporter of issues related to accessibility. It has listed so far 52 beaches for people with special access needs, including 36 fully accessible and 16 partially accessible. FULLY ACCESSIBLE BEACHES The following 36 beaches have full access to the beach, as the wheelchair user is able to get from the beach into the sea moving on a wooden or plastic ramp. There is also availability of hygiene facilities and parking places for disabled persons. It is worth mentioning that on 7 of these beaches there is an innovative system (Seatrac)* that enables disabled people to have a full access to the sea. It is an automatic system powered by photovoltaic energy, consisting of a seat fixed in a rail that drives the disabled person into the sea at an approximate depth of 60cm. A number of 34 beaches have Floating Wheelchairs** that can be easily moved on the sand and float in the water thanks to their floating armrests and wheels. Seatrac and Floating Wheelchairs are available for use by the public free of charge and relevant information may be obtained by the lifeguards on the beaches. 1 AMMOCHOSTOS (FAMAGUSTA) (12 beaches) Agia Napa: Landa (Floating Wheelchair), Pantachou (Floating Wheelchair), Vathia Gonia (Seatrac).

ZooKeys 924: 1–114.https://doi. org/10.3897/zookeys.924.38328 Abstract Cyprus, the third largest island in the Mediterranean, constitutes a biodiversity hotspot with high rates of plant endemism. The wild bees of the island were studied extensively by the native George Mavro- moustakis, a world-renowned bee taxonomist, who collected extensively on the island from 1916 to 1957 and summarised his results in a series of eight Cyprus-specific papers published from 1949 [“1948”] to 1957.
